Colorado is where it spent most of its life. Its been here a few years but never used for more than a summer cruiser.

That's what I like to here I do the same.


Where you at in mi?

 

[Mundy]

It is sunny today so I drove it to work but I cannot wait for the temps to get warmer so the top can come off.

I am in Grand Blanc near Flint

 

[Deuling]

Gonna go to silver lake at all with it?

 

[Mundy]

That is on the list.

We camp in Pentwater each year and went to silver lake dunes for the first time last year.


Its a 3 hour drive So I am hoping to go at least once this summer.

Let me know. I'm only 40 min away

Is love to check your rig out, never actually seen a full vert in person

...never actually seen a full vert in person

That's a shame. You live such a sheltered life.

They don't exhist up here dude, all of them rotted away years ago


Well i have seen first gen full verts at the dunes, so i guess thats not true. But ive never gotten to get real close to one, especially the 73 style.

Da troof.

I saw one in actual real life about 13 years ago. Well, I saw one about 5 years ago but it was already half cut up for parts because it was heavily rusted.

I have one. It is pretty rusty, but it was parked in a tree line twenty years ago, or it would be gone. There is another one here in town, but he never takes the top off because it is holding it together. Other than that, I see them very rarely.

I've had a 73, and two 75's , all rotted badly. So now my rust free 86 is a full vert thanks to the last 75.

There is a bone stock, original paint (mint green and white) full vert about 10 miles from my house that sits in a lot and has moved once in the last 8 years . Looks great from the road, I refuse to look closer, I don't have much self control when it comes to a rig like that and I really don't need another project

 

[colbystephens]

There's a pretty reasonable number of rust free ones here.

 

[Chevy305]

I almost bought a 75 with a factory 400ci over my stepside with a 305 but it was rotted bad.

 

[Mundy]

I have looked at lots of these over the years. but they were all so rusty crunchy

When I crawled under this one it was like the M&M commecial.

THEY DO EXIST ! and I had to buy it.

That rig would be worth twice as much here, if not more.

I like it. Definitely gives a different look than the truck parked in the cornfield on my calender.

Haha no kidding, and thanks. My calendar is looking pretty good this month

78SWB very nice. That is just about perfect in my humble opinion. Great job!
